Cervical and lumbar discomfort is prevalent among individuals who spend extended periods in front of a computer, which can occasionally result in significant nerve compression and canal stenosis, necessitating surgical intervention. Proactive awareness can mitigate this risk.

Session on Ergonomics for Desk Workers: 45-minute interactive presentation with Dr. Satyen Bhattacharyya

A list of assessment tests is to be done for every individual

Agility: (Quadrant Jump Test): This assessment gives insight into the activity level or rapidity of individuals.
Balance (Stork Balance Stand Test): An individual’s proficiency in balance correlates positively with enhanced injury prevention.
CVS Endurance: (Step Up Test) This evaluation enables us to assess the cardiovascular stamina of participants.
Respiratory Capacity Test: This evaluation will ascertain your respiratory well-being. Post-COVID, it is essential for everyone to improve their lung capacity.
Coordination (Wall Toss Test): When bodily movements are effectively synchronised, the quality of muscular interaction improves, thereby reducing the individual’s susceptibility to musculoskeletal injuries.
Flexibility: individuals must exhibit adaptability. A flexible physique incurs fewer injuries. Therefore, all bodily joints should maintain flexibility to support daily activities and prolonged desk-type employment.
Reaction time: This ability is crucial for individuals to synchronise various forms of movement in everyday life. We shall evaluate this.
Muscle Strength: Enhancing muscular strength is a primary objective for everyone. Therefore, it is essential to routinely assess whether the targeted muscles are developing adequately. A decline in muscle strength can lead to numerous musculoskeletal complications. For instance, if there is a muscular imbalance due to insufficient strength in the muscles surrounding the knee, it may ultimately lead to osteoarthritis of the knee over time.
Posture Evaluation: Posture constitutes the paramount element in our contemporary sedentary lifestyle. Furthermore, a desk job will generate numerous postural complications. It is essential to recognise our poor posture in order to correct it to a more favourable alignment.
Biomechanical Examination: We will investigate the bony defect of your spine and, if warranted, the peripheral areas. This will disclose the location and nature of your fault. Our interventions and at-home exercises will yield enduring outcomes.
